This project is a renovation design to an existing home in Nedlands, Western Australia. The original house is a 1950's - 60's build where the internal spaces were closed in and off away from social circulation for the young family.
These wonderful clients appreciate natural light and making the most of the beautiful western Australian light coming into the home. The brief was to create a space from the existing closed in spaces with an outdoor feeling when inside the home.
Internal walls were knocked through and the external wall running from the kitchen through to dining area was opened out to surround the new open space with feature steel framed doors and windows creating a surrounding view of the outdoor garden area.
A new kitchen was designed utilising local warm timber veneers to add bronze warmer tones to the new lightened up spaces.
